Coats are distributed in the communities where they were collected, to children and adults in need, without charge, discrimination or obligation. “After working with EVINS previously, they were the natural choice to help One Warm Coat reach an even wider audience than in the past,” said One Warm Coat president & CEO Jennifer Stockard.
